Jade autoconf support
Jade autoconf support
With ./configure, you'll have an alternate method to
prepare the source distribution for building. This support is
experimental, and I'd like to receive feedback and patches for your
operating system. If a build with autoconf doesn't work, you can
always revert to the original Makefile which is saved by configure to
Makefile.dist. make mrproper will undo
everything that has been modified by ./configure.
Usage
% ./configure; make; make install
configure options
--help- Print a full list of options. This document only deals with the
non-standard options.
--enable-http- This enables the built-in HTTP client so that you can use HTTP as
a method for getting to system identifiers.
--enable-default-catalog=pathlist- Provide the built-in definition for
SGML_CATALOG_FILES.
--enable-default-search-path=pathlist
- Provide a built-in definition for
SGML_SEARCH_PATH.
--disable-mif
- Don't build the MIF backend.
--disable-html
- Don't build the HTML backend.
Local defines
If you have some extra additions to OpenJade, you can set
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS and/or LDFLAGS/LIBS at configure time:
CXXFLAGS=-Dmyhacks LDFLAGS=-L/opt/myhacks LIBS=-lmyhacks ./configure
Check the invocation of ld in Makefile.comm for the exact semantics
of LDFLAGS and LIBS.
Tested platforms
- RedHat Linux 5.2 (egcs 1.0.3, glibc 2.0.7)
- RedHat Linux 6.0 (gcc 2.95.1, glibc 2.1.1)
- SuSE Linux 5.3 (gcc 2.7.2.1, libc 5.5.46)
- Solaris 2.6 (gcc 2.8.1)
Shared library support
By default, ./configure attempts to build shared
libraries and link against them. This is done via the
libtool utility, a utility that knows how to build shared
libraries on a number of platforms.
By default, only shared libraries are built. If you have
difficulties building shared libraries, or you want to build static
versions, you can use the
--{enable,disable}{shared,static} options to configure
libtool to your likings.
According to the libtool 1.2 docs, shared libraries work on:
- AIX 3.x (*-*-aix3*)
- AIX 4.x (*-*-aix4*)
- AmigaOS (*-*-amigaos*)
- Digital/UNIX 3.x, 4.x, a.k.a. OSF/1 (*-*-osf3*, *-*-osf4*)
- FreeBSD 2.x, 3.x (*-*-freebsd2*, *-*-freebsd3*)
- GNU/Linux ELF (*-*-linux-gnu*, except aout, coff, and oldld)
- HP-UX 9.x, 10.x (*-*-hpux9*, *-*-hpux10*) [see note]
- IRIX 5.x, 6.x (*-*-irix5*, *-*-irix6*)
- NetBSD 1.x (*-*-netbsd*)
- OpenBSD 2.x (*-*-openbsd*)
- OS/2 using EMX (*-*-os2*)
- SCO OpenServer 5.x (*-*-sco3.2v5*)
- Solaris 2.x (*-*-solaris2*)
- SunOS 4.x, a.k.a. Solaris 1.x (*-*-sunos4*)
- UnixWare 2.x (*-*-sysv4.2uw2*)
- UTS 4.x (*-*-uts4*)
- All ELF targets that use both the GNU C compiler (gcc) and GNU ld
One more note from the libtool documentation: the HP/UX sed seems
to be badly broken, install GNU sed before attempting to build -
libtool depends on a working sed.
